how do i stop pop ups?

Question

i have tried downloading pop-up blockers but none work pleez help me :(

Answer 1

One word "Firefox". You can also block banner ads.

Answer 2

try the new IE 7 it seems to work better at stopping pop-ups. But if you still get them then it is possible that you have installed an application which generates its own pop-ups. some versions of limewire etc come with adaware which will cause pop-ups.try removing such applications and see if it helps

Answer 3

Use a pop up blocker.

Answer 4

I have the Yahoo and Google toolbars and they both come with pop-up blockers.

Answer 5
